Urinary S/O Canine effectively dissolves struvite uroliths. In addition, an acidic urinary pH is unfavourable to the development of bacteria, which are frequently associated with struvite uroliths.
A reduced calorie content helps limit weight gain.
Diluting urine decreases the urinary concentration of struvites and calcium oxalate crystals. Greater urinary volumes also ensures regular bladder wash-out.
Low RSS diets encourage an undersaturated urinary environment, unfavourable to the development of struvite and calcium oxalate crystals.

Being overweight increases a dog s risk of suffering from complications associated with urolithiasis. In addition, overweight dogs have double the risk for developing uroliths compared with dogs at ideal weight.
Maintaining an ideal weight during and after resolution of lower urinary tract disease could help to prevent recurrence.
